Topic: Mortgage Revision
The Obama Administration’s Home Affordable Program, HAMP, had been heavily criticized for not doing enough to forestall foreclosures, which hit 2.8 million homeowners in 2009.
Although the final figures are not in, expect a record number of foreclosures again for 2009. In states that have revamped their foreclosure laws by mandating changes like lender borrower mediation, the trend has slowed significantly
This past week, mortgage giant Freddie Mac’s survey showed that the average interest on a 30 fixed mortgage had inched up to 4.94%. Across the board, expect rates to then head up pushed by the expanding budget deficit, and inflation pressures caused by a rebounding economy

When it’s time to find help with your mortgage, start by calling your servicer directly or a firm it has hired to deal with the public. You should not have to pay anything up front to get assistance.
If you are severely underwater, you might be able to convince the second mortgagor to release the lien and turn the loan into an unsecured personal loan.
